Hi, Myself and Vamshi who`s kernel (2.6.32.9 #68) i`m using have ported this very different but very nice ROM, its based on Stable Cyanogen 7.1.0* and originally created by LeWa forum, webpage here......I`ve converted it to work on our Racer and updated it abit, all functions work and is excellent to use, market v3.4.4 is already included so NO need to install a seperate Gapps Package........

*as of "LeWa_ROM_Racer_12.02.17" they are based on Cyanogen 7.2.0

UPDATE: as of LeWa_ROM_Racer_12.03.30 their will be NO MORE roms released

IF YOU WISH TO SHARE THESE ROMS ON OTHER FORUMS PLEASE DO, BUT DONT UPLOAD SOMEWHERE ELSE USE THE DOWNLOAD LINKS ABOVE....THX

NO UPLOADING THESE ROMS TO ROM MANAGER.........

Usual installation method using ClockWorkMod Recovery:

1.Copy the rom to the root of your sdcard2.Backup your old ROM, so if anything is broken you can just rollback!!! How to backup: Press powerbutton and VolumeDown (leave volume down pressed). After afew seconds, recovery will open With volume keys, go to "backup and restore". Select that option Now select "Backup" and wait 3.Once backup complete press power button to go back to main menu4.Select "wipe data/factory reset" 5.Go to submenu "mounts and storage" 6.Choose "format /boot" "format /data" "format /cache" "format /system" "format /sd-ext" - confirm every action 7.Return to 1st menu and goto Advanced and delete Dalvik cache 8.Return to 1st menu and choose "install zip from sdcard" - "choose zip" "LeWa_ROM_Racer_**.**.**" 9.After installing, do "reboot system now"

Note: Default Lockscreen you slide down from the top all the way to the bottom, to bring up apps menu swipe upwards on the desktop screen.......dont use the inbuild updater on the settings menu, it wont work with ported build........

Battery Stats, resetting battery stats in CWM once in a while is highly reccommended if you install alot of custom roms or have`nt done it in a long time, charge phone to 100% and then turn off phone, keep charging until LED light goes off or turns green, now boot into CWM goto advanced menu and delete battery stats, reboot phone done..........battery life WILL last longer

If you like this ROM please rate the thread by pressing the + on the bottom right hand corner of this post.....thx

LeWa_ROM_Racer_12.01.06

Added function of Live WallpapersTranslated some items on the Phone app (thx Vamshi)Updated Market to V3.4.4 (no need to install seperate Gapps)Updated Superuser and SU

LeWa_ROM_Racer_11.12.23

Added host privacy patch to rom Corrected the kernel version in settings/about phone to reflect Vamshi`s kernel (edited the settings.apk)

Themes

OK, so the Launcher in the rom freaked out when trying to download themes from LeWa, this is because we have a host block on the phone that stops info going to "Umeng" a stats company and we dont want that it happens everytime you try to connect to download themes.(check logcat)........... so what i did was download ALL the themes available (14) without the block and saved the files........ what i did to make them work, download the THEME FILE (download above) and extract it to your sdcard (should be a LEWA folder, if you have an existing folder already over-write it)....now create a power widget on your desktop then reboot (see 1), once rebooted and back on your desktop disable your data network and or wifi connection see below (2)
